I love you.

You know that?

I know that, kitten.

I love you, too.

Okay.

I'm sorry, Charles.

You've got to understand...

He's all I have.

You've got me, too.

I need to be alone right now.

Greetings

from the dairy state.

Aw, what a doll.

What do you got for me?

New guy in 505.

Been here a day

and thinks he owns the place.

I will whip him into shape.

I'm sure you will.

Ooh, that's nice. Sweet.

We can't break ground

until we get a clean bill

of health from the epa,

not to mention...

Hang on a sec.

No! No, leveraging this deal

will give us

the best capital returns

in the long run.

Wha...

Absolutely not.

We can't risk

that skunk pulling out again.

Mr. Benson...

You'll have to speak up.

I can't hear you.

Jim, no...

I need a good faith offer

of at least 50 million

before I'll even consider

sitting down with him.

Thank you.

Bye, Jim.

What did you do that for?

Okay.

Take a breath.

First, you unplugged

your heart monitor,

and second,

you're supposed to be in bed,

getting rest.

Doctor's orders.

You're not my doctor.

Nope.

I'm your nurse.

It's a practical joke, right?

Frank holzman

put you up to this?

It's one of

those song-o-grams, right?

Okay, so when you

get back to the office,

get a copy to each party,

including a

revised addendum.

Will do.

- Anything else?

- Mm-hmm.

Charles left this

for your father.

Some new hotel development

he wants him to take a look at.

You'd think he could

give the guy a day or two.

Want me

to give it back to him?

No, I'll look at it.

Oh, no! The doctor's in!

The doctor's in!

- Don't look, don't look.

- Okay, I won't. I'm not looking.

Kate!

Debbie, what are you doing here?

Um, Katherine...

Katherine was not...

Katherine, um...

- I fainted.

- Right? Yeah.

Must be exhaustion.

I work like a maniac,

in case you haven't heard.

I really ought

to take this as a warning.

Was there any vomiting

or abdominal cramps?

- No.

- Yes.

Yeah, no...?

No.

There was,

but that's past.

That's all gone now.

It is.

All gone.

Feeling

much better.

I will be taking

a few days off, though.

Sounds like you're dehydrated.

Hi, um...

My name is Reggie leduca.

My friends call me Reggie...

Leduca...

Has anyone ever told you

that you have

the most amazing eyes?

Um...

Katherine,

did you say

you had to get back

to the office?

Katherine!

Reggie...

- Oh.

- Huh?

Yes. Yeah. I...

Have a job,

and I have to go there.

Can I walk you back to work,

Katherine?

You okay?

Phew.

Hi.

Hi.

Um... how's your dad?

He's fine, thank you.

He should be discharged

before the weekend.

Good, good.

Yeah.

I've missed you.

It's only been

45 hours.

Okay...

Good, so you're

counting, too.

I guess I am.

You look very cute

in your scrubs.

Thank you.

You look very cute

in your gray dress.

Thank you.

When do I get to see you again?

This Friday work?

I'll call.

I'll answer.

You look better.

Kitten, I'm perfectly fine.

I don't even know

why I have to stay here.

It's for

your own good.

Please don't talk to me

like I'm a child.

Hey, did you see

what I brought you?

A chess set.

Mm-hmm.

Payback.

For all those times

you trounced me as a kid.

It's the only way you'd learn.

I thought

you were just a poor loser.

That too.

Daddy?

Mm-hmm?

How long did it take you

to fall in love with mom?

Ooh...

I'd say about

a minute and a half.

Really?

That fast.

She had that laugh.

Remember?

How she could shake you

out of your bluest moment

and make you feel like

you could conquer anything.

When I heard that laugh,

I was done for.

Why?

What's troubling

you, kitten?

I think I may be in love.

Oh, Katherine...

It's someone

I can see

spending the rest

of my life with,

having children with.

But what about Charles?

I thought you were

going to try to do...

I did try.

I did,

and I just don't love him.

And you love

this man,

someone you don't

even know?

I know him.

What does he do for a living?

Who are his parents?

What schools

did he go to?

I'm a grown woman.

I don't have to

justify my choices to you.

And I'm your father.

You most certainly do.

You realize

you put me in charge

of a multi-billion dollar

corporation.

And hundreds of decisions

every day

that determine its future,

but you won't let me make

a single one about my own?

Business is one thing,

but love is...

Love is personal.

You and the board of directors

don't get a vote.

Katherine...

Katherine!

The guy's name's

Jack Cooper.

It seems like they met

on a dating website.

He's a registered nurse

at Chicago west.

All his personal

info is in there.

Mr. Benson!

I was coming back

from the bathroom,

and my legs just

gave out on me.

You know you're

not supposed to

get out of bed

by yourself.

I've been going to

the bathroom on my own

since I was

three years old.

I'm not ready to

change things yet.

Okay, from now on,

you have to ring me

if you need to get up.

Mr. Benson, I can have

a female nurse assigned

if it makes you feel

more comfortable.

Nah, it's okay.

Sometimes, I need to sit

with an idea for a while, but...

I usually come around.

You play?

State high school champ

'64 through '67.

50 years ago.

We gonna be here

all day or what?

You got somewhere

you need to be?

Hmm...

You know, my late wife

was a nurse.

We met during the war.

Civil?

Vietnam, smart-aleck.

And you... you got

a girlfriend?

I do.

How'd you two meet?

On the Internet.

Ah, one of those

desperate cases, hmm?

Lots of people

meet that way.

You kids nowadays want

everything to be so easy.

You think

you can find love

by filling out

a survey,

checking off a list,

like you were

buying a car.

"Mercedes."

Click.

"Power steering."

Click.

"Black." Click.

"Extra cup holder."

Sometimes, you got to

dig to find the gold.

Love,

like anything worth having,

requires some good

old-fashioned elbow grease.

That's what I've been telling

my hotheaded daughter anyway.

You have a daughter?

Mm-hmm.

And she's taken,

so don't get any big ideas.

Are you kidding?

The last thing

I would want

is you

as a father-in-law.

My sentiments exactly.

Exactly.

So, this Internet

girlfriend of yours,

she doesn't mind

your chosen profession?

No...

Not in the least.

She doesn't exist, does she?

She exists.

But she thinks I'm a doctor.

Ooh... that's quite

the kettle of fish,

now, isn't it?

I didn't mean for it to happen.

Things just got away from me,

and I...

Do you love her?

I do.

Then you've got

to tell her.

I know.

Hi, it's me.

Leave a message.

I'll call you back.

Hi, Debbie, it's, uh, it's me.

I have something

really important

that I have to tell you,

and it can't wait till Friday.

Can I see you tomorrow?

Jack Cooper?

How can I help you?

I'm Charles Hodges.

I'm a friend

of Katherine.

Who's Katherine?

Katherine Benson,

president of Benson alliance,

incorporated?

No.

No, that's my girlfriend,

that's Debbie celvin.

I don't get it.
